IBEW VETERAN'S COMMITTEE LOCAL 110 MEETINGS
IBEW Local 110 is proud to announce the formation of the IBEW Local 110 Veteran's Committee. We are asking all veterans interested in participating to contact us with information beneficial to current and former service members and help us build a strong bond between veteran members who are now proud brothers and sisters of Local 110.
Committee meeting are currently held via Zoom only due to Covid restrictions but will hopefully be in-person next month. If you would like to attend via Zoom please send a request for the meeting invitation to veterans@ibew110.org Meetings are held on the Thursday after the General Membership meeting at 5:30 p.m.
If interested please contact us at veterans@ibew110.org and please pass the word to your fellow IBEW veterans!
MISSION STATEMENT
To provide information and support to Veteran members of the IBEW and their families.
WHAT IS A VETERAN?
A “Veteran” – whether active duty, discharged, retired or reserve – is someone who, at one point in their life, wrote a blank check made payable to “The United States of America,” for an amount of “up to, and including his or her life.”
We are the home of the free because of the brave! Thank you Veterans for your sacrifice and service! We honor you!
We would like to honor our past and present IBEW Local 110 members who served in the Armed Forces.
If you are a Veteran and a 110 Member and would like to have your name on our Wall of Honor and not already listed (or cannot find your name), please go to Suite 110 and ask for the Referral Office or send an email to tvolkman@ibew110.org.
